Socrates

Contro la Juve si permettono qualsiasi cosa tanto gli arbitri li lasciano fare

Immaginavo che non era colpa della mancanza del pubblico

Partita che fa venire sonno. Sará perché non c'é il pubblico?

Possibile. Il Genoa pensa solo a difendersi e la Juve non punge.

Miretti non fare scherzi

É meglio che si metta a fare il professionista altrimenti al prossimo mercato rifará le valigie

Serie A Preview: Genoa vs Juventus – Team News, Line-ups & Prediction Stadio Luigi Ferraris sets the stage for Saturday’s high-stakes Serie A showdown between mid-table Genoa and Scudetto hopefuls Juventus. Both sides have stuttered at the start of the new league campaign and hope to turn things around this weekend. Genoa have claimed one win in the opening five league rounds for their fifth consecutive top-flight campaign (W1, D2, L2). Alberto Gilardino’s men have slumped to a horrendous 2-0 loss to newcomers Venezia a week ago. As a result, it’s been a month since the Griffins last won a match in Serie A. ............ The Bianconeri shared the spoils with Napoli in another uneventful 0-0 draw last weekend. It was their third consecutive scoreless stalemate in Serie A, a feat unheard of in Turin since 1992. As such, Motta’s frontline has already come under scrutiny. Juventus march toward Genoa in pursuit of redemption, seeking their first league triumph since late August. Match Preview Genoa ............ Juventus Juventus can exploit Genoa’s poor state of mind, as Motta needs to resolve the visitors’ travel sickness to bolster their chances of dethroning Inter this season. Juve’s overly cautious approach on their road trips has seen five of their last six away league matches ended all square. That’s part of a more sinister pattern. Indeed, Juventus have claimed just one win in their last ten Serie A games outside the Allianz Stadium (D6, L3). Motta might not be the ideal man to inspire the Bianconeri to a much-needed road success, having slumped to a 2-0 defeat on this ground while in charge of Bologna last term. There’s another ominous sign for Juventus. Tendency to share the spoils has been their scourge in 2024, with no team from Europe’s traditional top-five leagues posting more draws this calendar year than the Turin outfit. On a positive note, the visitors can take heart from entering this round as the only Serie A team yet to concede a league goal this season. Team News Genoa cannot call upon the services of Ukrainian midfielder Ruslan Malinovskyi, who underwent ankle surgery last week. ............ Juventus loanee Fabio Miretti has recently returned to full fitness and could face his parent club this weekend. As for the visitors, Federico Gatti is back after a short spell on the sidelines. His return means Pierre Kalulu or Nicolo Savona would likely drop to the bench. Motta will be without Paul Pogba, Arkadiusz Milik, and Timothy Weah. Dusan Vlahovic will be under the spotlight as he seeks his first league goal since August. Genoa vs Juventus Potential Line-ups Genoa (3-5-2): Pierluigi Gollini; Koni De Winter, Mattia Bani, Johan Vasquez; Stefano Sabelli, Morten Thorsby, Milan Badelj, Morten Frendrup, Aaron Martin; Vitinha, Andrea Pinamonti. Juventus (4-1-4-1): Michele Di Gregorio; Nicolo Savona, Federico Gatti, Gleison Bremer, Andrea Cambiaso; Manuel Locatelli; Nicolas Gonzalez, Khephren Thuram, Teun Koopmeiners, Kenan Yildiz; Dusan Vlahovic. Genoa vs Juventus Prediction This contest has all the makings of an Italian classic but not in terms of stature. We expect this to be a low-scoring fixture with only a handful of scoring chances on both ends. Juventus often thrive in such circumstances, so we back the visitors to claim a narrow 1-0 win.

Kalulu reveals how Motta makes his players more confident and comfortable Pierre Kalulu is thriving at Juventus, and working with Thiago Motta has been a smooth experience for the French defender. ............ Motta had been tracking him for some time and was confident that the defender would fit perfectly into his system, which has proven to be the case so far. As Kalulu settles into life in Turin, he has benefited from having a manager who trusts him and enables him to perform at his best on the pitch. ............ “Thiago Motta manages to give confidence to everyone and freedom in the game.

Massimo Mauro: ‘Douglas Luiz was embarrassing in the Empoli match’ Former Juventus player Massimo Mauro has offered his insights on the team’s performance under new manager Thiago Motta. While praising the overall project, Mauro suggests a less cautious approach might be needed to ignite the attack. ............ Regarding Douglas Luiz, Mauro is critical of his limited playing time: “From what we’ve seen in Empoli, it was right to rest him. In Tuscany, he was embarrassing, he was walking. If he should be used little in the future as well, then yes, it would become a problem considering he was paid 51 million.” ............

Juventus gets Francisco Conceicao boost, but there is a new injury Juventus has received both a boost and a setback on the injury front ahead of their next game. The Bianconeri have largely enjoyed a fit squad this season, but as the campaign has progressed, they have lost some key players to injury. One player they have been eagerly awaiting is Francisco Conceição, who has been sidelined since the last international break. ............ Timothy Weah has sustained now a new injury and will be unavailable for the weekend match. The American international was injured in the first game of the season and had just returned to action, but he is now sidelined again, and the Bianconeri will be without him for several weeks. ............

Crowd likely to be banned for Genoa vs. Juventus after violent clashes The Serie A match between Genoa and Juventus on Saturday is expected to be played behind closed doors as a result of violent clashes with Sampdoria supporters in the Coppa Italia. ............ There was set to be a huge crowd in the stands for the big game, but reports suggest it will instead be played behind closed doors. A final decision will be made by the local authorities on Friday morning and all signs are currently pointing towards an empty stadium. This is a strong response to the violent clashes that happened both before and after last night’s Coppa Italia Second Round tie between rivals Genoa and Sampdoria. ............

Tacconi lauds Di Gregorio & Bremer: “An animal that pounces on his prey” Legendary Juventus goalkeeper Stefano Tacconi applauded Michele Di Gregorio and Gleison Bremer for their displays against Napoli. The 67-year-old made his long-awaited return to the Allianz Stadium on Saturday following a long health ordeal. ............ Tacconi was full of praise for his successor Di Gregorio who showed his competence on a couple of occasions during the encounter to earn his fourth clean sheet in as many league appearances for the club. “He had excellent reflexes, a great reaction,” said Tacconi in his interview. “I would say that he started his adventure in black and white excellently. These big saves are like scoring a goal, they transmit confidence. ............ The former Italy international also hailed Gleison Bremer who had the upper hand in his physical duel against Romelu Lukaku. “It’s crazy how good he is. It’s like watching an animal for the way he pounces on the opponent, almost as if he were his prey. ............

Costacurta highlights difference between Vlahovic & Lautaro Martinez: “Too emotional” Legendary Milan defender Alessandro Costacurta explains how the difference between Juventus striker Dusan Vlahovic and Inter captain Lautaro Martinez is mostly mental. ............ Costacurta feels that the goal drought weighing more on Vlahovic than Martinez, and that is down to their mentality. ............ The Milan legend urges Vlahovic to mentally free himself from his goal obsession. “When I watch Vlahovic, I see him too emotional. He is thinking too much about goals,” said the 58-year-old. “Lautaro is more detached from the obligation to poach goals from the box, so he makes himself more involved in the play. “Vlahovic must overcome the phase of considering the goal as a fundamental aspect of his game,” concluded Costacurta.

Juventus intend to purchase Kalulu from Milan following convincing start Juventus have already decided to exercise their option to buy Pierre Kalulu from Milan after an impressive start to the new season. ............ After missing out on Riccardo Calafiori and Jean-Clair Todibo, Juventus decided to launch an attempt to sign Kalulu, while Milan offered little resistance. The Diavolo agreed to send the player to Turin for a loan fee worth 3.3 million euros and an option to buy at the end of the season. But the Bianconeri might not necessarily wait until June to activate the purchase clause, as the player’s impressive displays in the early weeks of the campaign have already convinced the management to keep him. ............ The Frenchman would cost Juventus a transfer fee of 14 million euros (to be added to the loan fee), plus bonuses that could reach 3M, thus taking the total cost of the operation to circa 20 million euros.

Motta tried to “spur” Vlahovic with eyebrow-raising substitution – The two men already discussed it Juventus coach Thiago Motta was only intending to prompt a response out of Dusan Vlahovic through the much-discussed substitution against Napoli, explains a report in the Italian press. ............ The 24-year-old hit a new low in Saturday’s big showdown against Napoli. Following a listless first-half performance where he only touched the ball on six occasions, his manager decided to haul him off at the interval. The decision raised many eyebrows, especially since his replacement was Timothy Weah, a winger by trade. ............ Motta was only trying to “spur” Vlahovic and spark a reaction in the coming weeks. Motta still appreciates the striker’s attitude and willingness to fight for the team’s cause. However, he would like him to become less frenetic on the pitch and avoid getting easily frustrated by the lack of service or wasted chances. ............

Juventus make first contact with the entourage of Ligue 1 bomber Juventus have reportedly made the first concrete move in their attempts to secure an agreement with Lille striker Jonathan David. The 24-year-old has established himself as one of the deadliest bombers in Ligue 1 since his arrival in France back in 2020. ............ The Canadian has refused all renewal offers, as he seems intent on pursuing bigger career objectives. This situation has alerted several top clubs around Europe, including Juventus who might need a new striker with Dusan Vlahovic failing to deliver on a consistent basis. ............ The club’s Football Director Cristiano Giuntoli has already made contact first with the player’s entourage. The Bianconeri would like to place themselves ahead of the competition from the very start, as they reportedly consider David one of their main objectives for next season. ............ The Brooklyn native has often been deployed as a centre-forward, but he can also feature as a second striker or an attacking midfielder when required.

The Douglas Luiz mystery – Why is the former Aston Villa star struggling at Juventus? Despite being the club’s second-most expensive signing of the summer after Teun Koopmeiners, Douglas Luiz has yet to hit the ground running since arriving at Juventus. ............ Last season, the 26-year-old was one of the finest midfielders in the Premier League. He scored ten goals and produced as many assists across all competitions. However, he’s been struggling to impose himself in Thiago Motta’s middle of the park. The Brazilian only had one start thus far this season in what was a disappointing showing in Empoli. ............ Luiz’s late return from the summer vacation has been taking its toll on his physical condition. Moreover, the player is still trying to adjust to the new training methods and tactical system, which also hindered his early weeks at the club. Therefore, the source insists there shouldn’t be a reason to panic at the moment, as the Brazil international can still turn out good for the Bianconeri. ............

Juventus considering new playing position for Kenan Yildiz Juventus coach Thiago Motta is reportedly tempted to test his young star Kenan Yildiz in a different position. The 19-year-old originally rose onto the scene as a second striker, but has been mostly playing as a left winger this season, producing mixed results. ............ Yildiz could be tried as a false Number 9 at some stage. Dusan Vlahovic has been out of sorts as of late. He only managed to score two goals against Hellas Verona since the start of the season. Many supporters fear that the Serbian might not be the ideal centre-forward for Motta’s tactical system. Therefore, the coach could decide to test Yildiz in this role, and hope for results similar to the Joshua Zirkzee experiment from his Bologna days. ............ So it remains to be seen if Motta would be willing to drop Vlahovic – the league’s highest-paid athlete – to make way for this curious experiment.

Italian reports link Juventus with sensational Osimhen swoop In the last few hours, circulating reports in the Italian press are linking Juventus with a move for Napoli loaned-out striker Victor Osimhen. The Nigerian cemented himself as one of the finest strikers in Europe during his time at the Stadio Maradona between 2020 and 2024. ............ Osimhen was tipped to join Paris Saint-Germain as a replacement for Kylian Mbappe, but the transfer never materialized. In the end, he had to accept a loan move to Galatasaray to avoid spending the campaign on the sidelines. Nevertheless, many observers expect the striker to find himself a more ambitious club sooner rather than later. ............ Osimhen’s contract with Napoli includes a buy-out clause but it could be activated by a foreign club. Therefore, Juventus would have to negotiate a deal with Aurelio De Laurentiis next summer. However, the Napoli patron could be willing to drop his price since the player’s contract will expire in June 2026. ............
